I am thrilled to tell you that on September 10th, the first book in my brand new Victorian series will be released! Unfortunately, the cover isn't yet available but watch this space...
A Widow's Vow is Louisa's story and when the book opens she learns of her husband's suicide - an ex-prostitute who feels she owes her elevation and salvation to this man, Louisa is devastated and afraid for her future and that of her friend, Nancy.
They are told that Louisa's husband has left her the deeds and ownership to a house in Bath so the women travel there and it is here that the remainder of the series is set. The house soon becomes a brothel that Louisa is determined to run on her own terms and for the best possible benefit and outcome for herself, Nancy and Octavia, a whore Louisa saves from the street.
This trilogy will explore the lives of these three very different women who come together, their lives combining but each always looking out for the other.
Their stories are about personal empowerment, heartbreak and, ultimately, everlasting love - I hope you're as excited to read these books as I was to write them!
Why not reserve your copy of book 1 today??
From
grieving widow...
1851. After her merchant husband saved her from a life of
prostitution, Louisa Hill was briefly happy as a housewife in Bristol. But then
a constable arrives at her door. Her husband has been found hanged in a Bath
hotel room, a note and a key to a property in Bath the only things she has left
of him. And now the debt collectors will come calling.
To
a new life as a madam.
Forced to leave everything she knows
behind, Louisa finds more painful betrayals waiting for her in the house in
Bath. Left with no means of income, Louisa knows she has nothing to turn to but
her old way of life. But this time, she'll do it on her own terms – by turning
her home into a brothel for upper class gentleman. And she's determined to
spare the girls she saves from the street the horrors she endured in the past.
Enlisting the help of Jacob Jackson,
a quiet but feared boxer, to watch over the house, Louisa is about to embark on
a life she never envisaged. Can she find the courage to forge this new
path?
A Widow's
Vow is the first in a gripping and
gritty new Victorian saga series from Rachel Brimble. You won't be able to put
it down.
